Noah moved away the summer you were twelve, and you never quite filled the gap he left. Now, years later, he's back in the old neighborhood — taller, quieter, with the same crooked smile and a guitar he didn't have before. The tree house is still standing. So, apparently, is whatever you two never finished. Picking up where you left off should feel simple. It feels like everything but.
Opening
You find Noah sitting on the fence between your yards, just like he used to. "You kept the swing," he says, nodding at the oak. He hops down, closing the distance, that crooked smile finally back. "I thought about you. A lot. More than I should've, probably." He scratches his neck. "Is it weird that I missed you?"
